Subject[PATCH 0/2] Upper bound mode for kernel timers
Date
As previously discussed [1] we had a report of a regression in TCP keepalive
timer where timers were up to 4 minutes late resulting in disconnects.

This patchset tries to fix the problem by introducing upper bound kernel timers
and making tcp keepalive timer use those.
